What is Buccal Fat Pad Reduction?

Throughout our developmental years, the fat deposits in our face that create those perfectly round chubby cheeks gradually diminish into a more defined facial contour.

In some cases, these fat deposits, also called buccal fat pads, do not go away as expected as we age. Large buccal fat pads on an adult's face can leave us looking tired and overweight. They can also create deep folds beside the nose and around the mouth.

Buccal Fat Pad Reduction is a cosmetic procedure that results in a more defined jawline and facial contour. It involves the removal of excess fat from the buccal fat pad, which is located in the cheek area, just below the cheekbone. This procedure is becoming increasingly popular among individuals seeking a more sculpted, contoured face.

The benefits of buccal fat pad reduction are numerous. It helps to create a more balanced facial appearance by reducing the fullness in the cheeks. This can result in a more youthful, attractive overall look. It can also help to reduce the appearance of jowls, which can occur with age. By removing the excess fat from the cheeks, the jawline appears more defined and the face appears slimmer and more toned.

Buccal Fat Pad Reduction can also eliminate the appearance of smile lines, or nasolabial folds, which are caused by facial volume loss.

By removing the excess fat from the cheeks, the underlying facial structures can better support the skin, resulting in smoother, more even lines in the face. Moreover, buccal fat pad reduction can also help to reduce the amount of facial sagging.

As we age, the facial muscles and tissues tend to become lax, resulting in a droopy, loose appearance. By removing the excess fat from the cheeks, the underlying facial muscles can better support the skin, resulting in a more toned and lifted look.

Buccal Fat Pad Reduction can also help to correct asymmetrical facial features. By removing the excess fat from the cheeks, the face appears more balanced and even, resulting in a more attractive appearance.

If you have full, overly-round chubby 'chipmunk' cheeks, Buccal Fat Pad Reduction may be the perfect procedure for you. This simple procedure can help you achieve a naturally sculpted, slimmer face shape that can dramatically revitalize your appearance.

Whether you are interested in a subtle natural look or dramatic results, your surgery will be fully customized according to your existing facial anatomy, unique surgical requirements, and desired aesthetic results.

Choosing Your Surgeon

When considering a surgeon, it’s important to research all of your options and choose a Surgical specialist who is Board Certified in both Aesthetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgery. While many plastic surgeons perform many different types of surgeries, you should select a surgeon who focuses strictly on a specific procedure and is recognized for excellence in this procedure.

What are the benefits if your surgeon has a reconstructive surgery background? Most of the world’s best aesthetic surgeons began with reconstructive practices. In fact, almost all of the groundbreaking techniques in aesthetic surgery have reconstructive origins.

Reconstructive surgery cases are typically more complex and often require highly specialized surgical techniques. Comfort, confidence, and predictability with advanced reconstructive surgery techniques have become powerful tools often adapted to aesthetic procedures.

All of the Plastic Surgeons at The First Glance are Board Certified Aesthetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgeons. Many of our surgeons are also Double Board Certified.
